A Shot

from Assemblage by Ellis Ashbrook

/

lyrics

Its fallen down,

upon the reign,

of my emotions,

If its about me,

Why can't you see that,

I don't want nuh-uh

please no, not me,

help me,

save this,

safety,

far from.



I saw a man it was too hard to see what he had,

In his left hand, all the sudden A Shot in the Dark.

As the silence fell I was relieved not to hear it anymore,

and as I left all I saw was A Shot in the Dark



And my wounds are just ringing,

oh that gunshot just stings me,

I could see it so clearly,

all the sudden there was the blood,

I knew my life was in a bind.



If its about me,

why can you see that,

I don't want nuh-uh,

please no not me,

help me,

save this,

safety,

far from.



I saw a man it was too hard to see what he had,

In his left hand, all the sudden A Shot in the Dark.

As the silence fell I was relieved not to hear it anymore,

and as I left all I saw was A Shot in the Dark



Cold, dark and shady,

it was cold and ever raining,

and it was black and grey, black and grey

To save me he just left

and I was dead, yes I was dead, alone, and I was blown.
